DODUBLIN TOURS

See more of Ireland’s capital with DoDublin Tours, Dublin’s original hop-on hop-off sightseeing experience. Operating since 1988, DoDublin Tours combine open-top city sightseeing with entertaining live commentary, making it easy to explore Dublin’s most famous landmarks in one flexible experience.

For guests staying at The Grand Hotel, DoDublin Tours offer an easy way to discover the city without spending the day navigating Dublin’s streets and public transport.


DoDublin Tours Bus

The hop-on hop-off format allows you to choose where you want to spend your time. Visit Trinity College, Dublin Castle, Phoenix Park, Guinness Storehouse, Jameson Distillery and other major attractions, then rejoin the route when you are ready to continue.

What sets DoDublin Tours apart is the storytelling. Rather than simply travelling between attractions, visitors hear stories about Dublin’s history, characters and culture from local guides. The result is a sightseeing experience that is as entertaining as it is informative.

Tickets are available for different durations, allowing visitors to choose the option that best suits their itinerary. DoDublin Tours also offer additional experiences including day trips and the Ghostbus, giving visitors even more ways to explore the capital and beyond.

For families, DoDublin Tours are particularly convenient, with children able to travel free with a paying adult on the hop-on hop-off experience.


PLAN YOUR TRIP

MAKE A DAY OF IT

DoDublin Tours make exploring Dublin simple. Rather than trying to fit every landmark into one walking route, you can see the city from the top deck, listen to the stories and decide where you want to spend more time.

After experiencing DoDublin Tours, return to The Grand Hotel and leave the city behind for the evening. With Dublin’s attractions within reach and Malahide on your doorstep, you can enjoy the best of both worlds.

For visitors looking to make the most of a Dublin stay, DoDublin Tours are one of the easiest ways to discover the capital.

Liffey Street, Dublin City

ON YOUR DOORSTEP

BEGIN IN MALAHIDE

Some of the area’s most memorable experiences begin just moments from the hotel. Wander through Malahide Village, where independent shops, cafés and the marina create an easy-going coastal atmosphere, or step into centuries of local story at Malahide Castle & Gardens. With the village, castle grounds and shoreline close by, there is no need to travel far to make a day feel well spent.


SEA AIR & OPEN ROADS

FOLLOW THE COAST

Beyond Malahide, the Fingal coastline opens out into long sandy beaches, harbour towns and sea-view walks. Head to Portmarnock for an expansive beach stroll, hire a bike and explore at your own pace, or make the journey to Howth for harbour dining and dramatic cliffside views. It is an invitation to take the scenic route, with every turn offering a new perspective on Dublin’s north coast.


EXPLORE FINGAL

GARDENS, ESTATES, & COASTLINE

Take the time to explore the wider character of Fingal, where historic estates meet open parkland and the Irish Sea. Discover the gardens and coastal views of Ardgillan Castle, step back in time at Newbridge House & Farm, or travel north to Skerries Mills for a glimpse of traditional craft and coastal village life. Each offers an easy day out from Malahide, with space to wander, pause and see a different side of Dublin.

MAKE A DAY OF THE CITY

Dublin City is close enough to enjoy at your own pace, whether you are planning a family day out, attending a major sporting occasion or taking in the capital’s best-known sights. Visit Dublin Zoo in Phoenix Park, experience the atmosphere of Croke Park or Aviva Stadium, or see the city through a guided DoDublin tour. When the day is done, return to The Grand Hotel and the calmer rhythm of the coast.


YOUR MALAHIDE BASE

A STAY MADE FOR SEEING MORE
